Car Audio/Fuse Question
Ok, So I was driving to work today and I was listening to Ludacris - Ultimate Satisfaction. Very Bass driven song. Played it tons of times with no problems.
So today I was driving and all of a sudden I heard a Pop and my Sub went out, my CarPC went out, and both my Cigarette lighter adapters went out. But my radio still worked.
I have the Car PC Hardwired to a power block that is hard wired straight to the battery. I have the sub going to the same block. The remote wire is going to the fuse block that controls my mirrors. I checked the mirrors and they still moved with no problem. I checked the fuses on the block and they were still good. I then checked the inside fuse block for the cigarette lighters and they still work. What is weird is why would the car PC and the cigarette lighters go out at the same time as they are on 2 different fuses and such.

Scratch that, i just popped the fuse for the cigarette lighter and put it back in and now they work. Also even though the fuse for the sub and car PC at the front of the car doesn't look blown, i swapped it with one from the power block and everything kicked on. So that was my issue.
